Thank you Anastasia V. Pergakis for helping us all round out our characters and find out who they really are.  You built a fantastic list! 

Good luck, everyone, on your next project.  Thanks for following along through the month of September.  Let me know how this character interview worked for you.  I’m very interested to know your experience with it.
